Role Overview

Equinix is looking for an ambitious and driven AI Engineering Intern to join our Enterprise AI Team. This is not a "shadowing" internship; you will be a core developer of AI solutions designed to revolutionize how we run our business and support global customers.

You will focus on creating and deploying applied AI applications that can navigate Equinix’s internal tools, interpret complex data, and execute autonomous workflows that drive proactive business intelligence.

Key Responsibilities

• Build Agentic Workflows: Design, develop, and deploy AI agents capable of multi-step reasoning, tool-use, and autonomous problem-solving for complex enterprise workflows.

• Apply Engineering Best Practices: Write clean, modular, and well-tested code. Participate in code reviews and utilize CI/CD pipelines to ensure highly reliable and maintainable AI applications.

• Bridge the Ecosystem: Enhance our existing Agentic Platforms by integrating frameworks like Google Vertex AI, Google ADK, and open-source tooling.

• End-to-End Development: Own the full software lifecycle—from data ingestion and prompt engineering to implementation, testing/evaluation, production deployment, and user adoption.

• Drive Insight & Intelligence: Work closely with cross-functional data and business teams to translate complex business problems into scalable, intelligent AI solutions.

Technical Qualifications

• Software Engineering Best Practices: Strong proficiency in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Python. Familiarity with clean code principles, version control (Git), unit testing, and API design/integration.

• AI & ML Foundations: Solid understanding of classical machine learning algorithms, model evaluation metrics, and the underlying architecture of Large Language Models (LLMs).

• LLMs & Agentic Frameworks: Hands-on experience (academic or personal projects) with Prompt Engineering, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures, and agentic frameworks (e.g., Google ADK, LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen).

• Data Skills: Proficiency in SQL, data manipulation, and familiarity with Vector Databases

• Cloud Computing: Foundational knowledge or experience with cloud platforms (GCP preferred, or AWS/Azure) and cloud deployment concepts.

Required Qualifications

• Currently pursuing an MS degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.

• Must be currently enrolled in an accredited university/college, in the penultimate year of your master’s degree studies (Graduation between December 2026 – September 2027).

• Available to work full-time during the 12 weeks summer internship period (June – September) in our Warsaw office.

• Strong written and verbal English communication skills.

• Collaborative, detail-oriented, and eager to learn in a fast-paced, cutting-edge environment.
